OUR BENEplCTION.

"God bloss you, dear" We said it when she
came
To dwell with us, little fragile thing;
And day by day we watched her fearing lest
The new imprisoned spirit might take wing.
"God bless you, dcarl" We said 1t when she
slept,
And when she woke, or smiled, or walled, or
sighed;
And when we planned her future then we
prayed
No real good or gain might be denied.
'God bless YOU, dcar" We said it when she
walked, u
And when she l,nelt to say her simple prayer,
And when we laid her in her bed at night
Ana when we called hcrin the morning fa.r.
"God bless you, dear" We said 1t when she
went,
Happy and proud. in school to take her place ;
And when she ran to Join her comrades play.
And when VIC kissed her dimpled, fiowor-like
face.
"God bless you, dear' We said 1T when she
With school-days all behind, in girlish grace,
10 read the valedictory, and take
Among the graduates an honored place.
'God bless you, dear" We said it when she
,nclt
To take the yoke of Christ with heart so meek
So free from guile, it seemed to lis that she
To find His Kingdom. had not far to seek,
"God bless you, dear" We said it when she
stood.
With orange blossoms on her sunny hair
Upon the threshold cf her womanhood-
The old refrain was still our loving prayer
''God bless you. dcarr' We said 1t yet again.
When strangely white she lay in dreamess
rest:
And though we could not understand, we felt
Nhat now our darling was most truly blest.

FORAKER'S SELF-CONCElT,
A Silly Story Circulated and Exaggerated
by Renullicnn panara.

Silly Story Circulated and Exaggerated
by Republican Papers.
The Republicans are pretty hard up
for political capital when they try to
make it out of the Foraker incident in
Philadelphia. There are. some very
contemplate phases to politics, but
this one seems to be the meanest of
them all. al fia
The chairman of the Reception Com
mittee. himself Republican, makes
two statements. In the first place he
declares that "the President treated
Governor Foraker with the same
courtesy rs he did the other Gov
ernor's." In the second place he
takes upon himself the full response
bility of denying that Mrs. Cleveland
Intentionally failed to salute Mr.. and
Mrs. Foraker, and that she refused to
| take their hands. .'rli3M
"She was guided by me-" he says.
''as to when to discontinue or con-
tinue hand-shaking. And II Gov
ernor and Mrs. Foraker passed by
without having been taken by the
hand, it was during one of the inter-
walls of rest which i insisted she should
take"
We suspect that the difficulty is in
Governor Foraker's sclf-conceit. Re-
garding himself us the most conspicu-
GUS figure present. it was impossible
for him to suppose that even tired
woman would not jump at the chance
to shake hands, and when he received
simply the formal bow which others
got his vanity was mortally wounded.
That explains the episode perfectly.
and the Republican chairman is quite
right in declaring the story a ''silly
one" Yes, it is Silly. but 1t is al
SO false IN Y Herald. 5

1t is the opinion of many prominent
Frenchmen that a Cabinet headed by NJ
Rouvier will not hold together any great
length of time, and that when it falls
De Freycinet will be Premier.

satisfied because he has not been retained

The houses will be sold on yearly pay
ments, which will not amount to more
than about three times q fair rental; and
simultaneously the life of the purchaser
will be insured to the extent of the un-
paid portion of the price. If he dies,
the remaining mortgage is Immediately
cancelled. The young vanderbilts have
agreed to provide capital for an expert

A HAPrER ON BOYS.

Newspapers throughout the country
are ~propounding the question: "What
will we do with our boysi" This we con-
slider q pretty tough problem to wrestle
with, says the Reno Gazette: A boy is
an unknown quality, and an uncertain
article to deal with. People who raise
them and who claim to understand the
art oil cultivation are always at a loss to
know what to do with them. The boy
seems to be the only one who borrows no
trouble. An important question with
him is how to get another bunch OF
cigarettes when his stock runs low.
Boys in olden times seemed to grow into
men, and those Of to-day consider that
the same thing is still possible. 1t is a
difficult matter to determine the destiny
Of even a wild and rockies youngster. 1t
does not always follow that he will con-
tinue down the road to ruin simply be-
cause he was reckless in his boyhood.
There comes q time when q person stops
to consider. When q boy reaches the
stage of manhood he scans the field OF
life, and it is not always the one who
takes the seemingly best road that
reaches home first. It is a deplorable
fact that the boys of to-day are addicted
to vices that do them no good, but, to
the contrary, are impervious to thems
and this is why the question is put;
"What are we to do with our boys?"
1t is a question which the parties IN
question must settle. Many a good
mother has guarded her boy like an
angel, pleaded with him as only a loving
mother can plead, only to see him fall
into the breakers of life and be tossed
upon the shore, a miserable wreck.
Prayers and training amount to naught,
unless she boy will profit by them.
Solve this question yourselves, boys. for
you are the only ones who can and are
certainly interested in its solution.

Of the order is to suppress idleness and

JERSEY CRY, June 4.-Professor
Charles Seidhorf and wife, Matilda,
! aged ninety and ninety-two, tired of a
long futile struggle with restitution,
| committed suicide this morning at
| Union Hill. Siedhorf, it is said, was
| Professor of Chemistry at Heidelberg
| University, Germany, 80 years ago.
He supported himself by writing for
newspapers, making translations and
occasionally lecturing upon chemistry
and electricity. These means failing,
they lived in filth and squalor. To
day the Poormaster called to take
them to Stakehill Hospital, where
light employment had been provided
for him. He begged for a few hours
time. At its expiration the officers
found him and his wife lying dead on
the floor, and a letter saying they had
taken that deadliest OF poisons, cyan
ide of potassium. He gave as a reason
for the act that he could not take his
wife with him to the hospital, and
could not live without her. He also
spoke OF having been wronged by
some one. 1t was a most pitiful affair,
A Frighsful Crime Quickly Avenged
LOUISVILLE, June 4.-News has just

on Sunday morning Charles and Ray
Davis called at the farm Of John Han
/ nigan, and after inducing his two sons
| to 60 to another part of the farm they
| forcibly carried the 12-year-old daugh.
| ter to the woods and tied her to a tree
and outraged her. Next morning the
/ girl was found by some neighbors still
gagged and bound. She was almost
| delirious from her sufferings. She re-
| covered sufficiently, however, to give
| the names of the fiends who had as
| saulted her. An avenging party was
soon organized and the Davis boys
were pursued and captured. They
] were both taken to the scene of their
crime and hanged. John Englew,
who was strongly suspected of par
ticipation in the villainous deed, was
also hunted down and lynched.

SARATOGA, N. Y, June Mrs.
Bockes, wife OF Judge Augustus
Bockes of the New York Supreme
Court and President of the First Ma

suddenly about 7 o'clock. For twelve
years she had visited the grave of her
daughter twice daily, regardless of sea
son or weather. The cemetery being
only a short distance from her resi-
dence she generally walked, and of
late some relative has accompanied
her. Last evening she started alone,
her brother following her a little way
behind. When she reached her
daughters grave she stood conversing
with one of the cemetery attendants,
when she suddenly fell forward on her
daughters grave, and the attendant,
when he hurriedly raised her from the
ground, found that life was extinct.

New York, June A Washington
special says: A private letter from a
resident at Port Au Prince, Hayti,
reveals some curious transactions in
which DIR. Thompson, Secretary Bay
ards appointee as United States Min
lister to Hayti, plays a CONSPICUOUS
part. Three months after the arrival OF
Thompson upon the island, Rev. B.
Van Bokklen, an American citizen
died, leaving a curious will which is
now the subject Of dispute among the
heirs. Van Bokklen had for a long
time been imprisoned for debt by the
Hayti authorities illegally as was
afterwards admitted. The State De-
partment presented a claim against
the Haytian Government for 100000
on behalf of Van Bokklen and de-
manded his liberty but the claim for
damage for false imprisonment still re-
mains pending. After his release
from prison, Van Bokklen went to the
United States for a visit and made a
will. He returned to Hayti and 10
DAYS after his return, died. Before he
died he was baptized into the Roman
Catholic Church, to which Minister
Thompson belongs. Two days before
this, Minister Thompson, it is said,
drew up a codicil to his will! in which
the infant son OF Thompson, whom
Van Bokklen had never seen, figured
as legatee for Is per cent, of Van Box
